I was deeply impressed with these Chianti Classicos from Istine. Proprietor Angela Fronti draws from vineyards sites in and around Radda and Gaiole to craft gorgeous, classically-leaning wines of real distinction. All of the Chiantis are aged in cask, which really allows the personality of each site to come through. The exception is the Riserva, which is a blend of the estate’s top Sangiovese, but it, too, is noteworthy. In its current incarnation, Istine is a young estate, but it is very much a property to keep an eye on.
